For years, designers created images on paper and a design got approved, and then images went to a factory that created protot
19、ypes (样品). Designers and developers made changes and sent prototypes back and forth. Once a final version was approved, it was sent to the factory to be copied for mass production. From start to finish, the process could take as long as a year. Now, some companies use software programs that can emai
20、l 3-D images of clothing with measurements immediately to factories. The goal is to reduce to six months or less the time it takes to get new products to stores. For clothing manufacturers and stores, this change means design decisions can happen closer lo when new fashions arrive at stores. Current
21、ly, the 3-D technology is only used in just two percent of overall suppliers, says Spencer Fung, CEO of Li & Fung. But he believes that will change as stores realize that reducing design time and prototypessaves money. You can create an entire collection of clothes before actually making one real pr
22、oduct, noted Whitney Cathcart, CEO of the Cathcart Technologies.

23、n the 3-D image. It looked real, said Rector. She did not worry about buying from a digital image, she said, because in online purchases, you couldn, l really know whether you bought the right product until you put it on your feet. Betabrand has sold 40,000 pairs of shoes, priced from $ 128 to $ 168
24、 over the past year, all from digital images. The company says it plans to add 15 to 20 more projects this year. Few companies are yet selling directlyto buyersoff digital images like Betabrand. They are showing the images to store buyers or factories instead. However, it is believed that companies

28、raging D.unfavorable4、 My 18-year-old son, Barton and his classmates had arranged a trip to Killington, Vt. for a weekend of skiing. He had asked for my permission. I nodded at that time giving weather no thought at all. Ive never imaginedId be a helicopter parent. I assumed kids were indestructible
29、, untilI had my own and discovered how breakable they could he. We had a handful of emergency room visits before Barton was 6. My concern evolved gradually and some days Fd forbid my children to leave the house if I thought it was too windy. But since this trip was quite important to Barton, I tried
30、 to reduce my concern. The news is just from one little AccuWeather forecast station, I comforted myself two days before his scheduled departure. From there I became unglued. That afternoon, I called the activity leader, Theyre saying the storm and snow will be over 24 inches. “Mom, do you know in o
31、rder to ski you need snow?” “I really dont think you should go,” I told my son. But everyones going, he said. I called a select group of momspicking carefully those whose children had great influence. If those kids were riot permitted to go, the rest would fall like a row of dominoes(多米诺骨牌). I was c
32、ertain. “Theyre all going lo die, I said, puzzled that I seemed to be the only mother who understood the potential danger. A few came around and finallyI thoughtI could relax. But teenagers dont always do what theyre told. As departure time neared, text messages informed my son that the kids who I h
33、ad assured him were not going on the trip had actually just found their seats on the bus. Barton picked up his snowboard and headed for the front door. Helpless and desperate, I climbed down the bottom rung(梯子的横档) of the parenting ladder.1.Which of the following can best describe the author accordin

36、t must be like in someone elses situation. It is an essential part of what it means to be human, to the extent that we are suspicious of anyone who does not show empathy in their behavior. 1 We read novels, watch television and go to the theatre, and part of our enjoyment comes from understanding th
37、e dilemma faced by the characters because we know how we would feel if we were in the same situation. 2 One study has shown animals displaying empathy towards other animals and towards humans. Creatures from across the animal kingdom such as bees and whales, as well as domestic pets, display behavio
38、r that suggests they cooperate with and protect each other.In another study, psychiatrist Jules Masserman and his team conducted an experiment with monkeys in which the monkeys pulled one of two chains that released food. One chain simply released the food, while another gave an electric shock to a
39、second monkey. The first monkey stopped pulling the chain that delivered the shock. 3 This empathetic behavior was observed in a number of monkeys. The origin of empathy is probably the need for the young of all animal species to be cared for. They communicate this requirement by crying for attentio
40、n and to show pain. Both human and non-human young were more likely to survive if their parents reacted positively to their needs. People and animals alike are social beings and are more likely to work together. 4 If we help others, we are also helping ourselves and so empathy is sensible and realis
41、tic.We dont always display empathy, however. Just as animals react aggressively to unknown creatures from their own or other species, humans tend to regard people they dont know with suspicion. 5 Our unwillingness to trust anyone unfamiliar is as natural to us as our empathy towards those we know an
42、d loveA. To feel empathy is not restricted to real life. B. You can empathize with someone without feeling sympathy for them.C. This fear of strangers will, we believe, protect us from personal danger.D. It seemed to be willing to go hungry rather than see a fellow animal suffer.E. However, it seems
43、 that in fact empathy may not be a quality unique to humans.F. Empathy plays a role in that as it allows us to understand our fellow humans better.G. Its certainly difficult to understand an animals intention behind an emphatic response.6、In kindergarten, I met my first lovedancing. For the last ele
44、ven years, I have spent many hours at the dance studio. The 1 I began as a little girl has shaped my personality, forming 2 that I will have for the rest of my life.

47、aged them to work harder. I would shout out names of people who were 12 well during the dance, and the girls would 13 with even more energy.
